PHP was released in the early 1990s with a very specific purpose: to help creators with simple tasks that HTML couldn’t handle. Today, PHP is one of the most popular languages for creating dynamic websites. It’s used on over 70% of sites, including WordPress, Vimeo, and Mailchimp. In this audio course, Joe Casabona details the history of PHP—how it came into being, the purpose it served, and the other types of programming languages that served as its competition. He then looks at how PHP has evolved and where it is today, and examines high-level programming concepts in the context of PHO, along with overviews of common frameworks and methodologies.
